Flea Exterminator in Benzonia

Pest control and management refers to any system or measure that seeks to eliminate or regulate the population of insects considered harmful to human and animal health and the environment. Pest control in Benzonia MI requires a lot of work and resources but it is a necessity, especially for homes. Here are the reasons why pest management is important and why every homeowner should consider applying it:

1. Preventing damage to homes and structures

In the U.S., people spend about $5 billion for the repair of damages caused by termite infestation. Termites consume wood and wood products such as ply-board and paper. Once they have burrowed into the wood components of the home, they can eat beams, floorings and walls from the inside. This makes the structure weak and vulnerable to collapse, leaving household members at a risk. Termite infestation can be especially problematic in older homes and structures that have not been treated. In areas where termites are known pests, managing a home to keep it safe from termites requires constant vigilance and assistance from pest control agencies.

2. Preventing allergies

Pests can cause a range of issues in people, such as skin allergies, asthma and other respiratory problems. Bed bugs and mosquitoes, for example, are notorious for causing skin rashes. Pests can also carry certain allegens that can cause strong allergic reactions in some people. Cockroaches, for example, can cause allergies in at least 7% of the population. They are also one of the leading causes of asthma in children.

3. Avoiding diseases and other health risks

Leprosy, skin infections, urinary tract infections, Lyme disease, intestinal infections, dysentery, dengue, malaria and food poisoning are just a few of the diseases and health problems that pests can cause. They also carry a number of bacteria and viruses that can affect human and animal health. Although many of these diseases are treatable, they can cause serious health issues in children, the elderly and immune-compromised individuals, many of whom will require professional medical treatment or hospitalization. That, in turn, can translate to millions of dollars in medical costs.

4. Preventing damage and deterioration of furniture, carpets and clothes

Pest control has to be applied in order to save furniture, carpets and clothing and avoid the expenses associated with repairs and replacements. Burrowing insects are notorious for causing damage to the wooden and fabric components of furniture. Some, such as carpet bugs, moths, cockroaches and silverfish are also attracted to fabric, often using it as a source of food.

5. Maintenance of food supply

Food supply is critical to the survival of the world’s populations. On a macro economic level, it also influences the world’s economies and supports majority of today’s active industries. Without proper pest management, almost 20% of our food supply will be wasted due to consumption of rodents. Each year, millions of dollars’ worth of food is lost to rodent attacks and infestation. By controlling the threat, it is possible to keep food supplies at manageable and useful levels. On the Benzonia Michigan home-front, implementing pest control measures can help prevent food waste and contamination. Pests do not only consume food, they also leave behind undesirable organic matter such as dead skin, body parts, feces and urine, all of which can affect the quality of the food we eat.

Some Common Q & A’s

What Is The Best Solution To A Flea Infestation Without Getting An Exterminator?
My House Is Currently Infested With Fleas And I Don'T Have Money For An Exterminator. Please Help!!!!!!!!!

Half the battle with fleas are the eggs that go through their cycle at different times. Using some spray with IGR in it will kill the adult fleas and their off spring can not reproduce because of the IGR. Then vacuum a lot.

Or, using the vacuum a lot will pick up the fleas and as the eggs hatch they can be picked up with the vacuum.

My Neighbor Said She Has Seen Bats Go Into Our Attic From Outside. Is There Anything I Can Do Other Than Call?
A Pest Control Company?

Bats are actually extremely important and benefical to the environment as pest control and as pollinators of many of the foods YOU eat. .Do NOT call a pest control. Many bat species are protected by law and cannot be killed but must be removed humanely. Look here for humane methods of getting bats out of your house..there is a "do-it-yourself" section (see table of contents for more options) as well. Your other options is to let them be..as long as they are not getting into the rest of your house and are confined to the attic, they will make your property mosquito and bug free!
